Before anyone else asks me, no I cannot circumvent this. And even if I could I wouldn't. I haven't looked at the files as I no longer play here but I am 80% certain the change was specifically to disable this. This patch has been living on borrowed time since I made it, it was going to happen at some point. This is the same method they have had in place to prevent tampering with the spell file for a few years now. There is ways I could potentially work around this without global load, but it's longer and more complicated (many struggled with global load as it is) and it may not even work right. Besides, I have no interests in going against the dev's wishes.
I am not upset, incidentally. I could care less. I play EQ rarely now and P99 not really at all. I just popped in to help when I could with whatever and maintain this. I am pretty busy in real life and this is just one less thing I ever have to bother with again lol.
Maybe one day the devs will make a custom divergent server that goes beyond Luclin like they have talked about, and maybe they will enable the models themselves then. But until then, enjoy winter and have fun in Norrath! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
I am still calling out that this was a selfish move - we all remember the game in our own way, and luclin models didn't effect anyone else. Some models we're especially bonded to, and some people just use a few models. I was in love with the mage elemental models, for example. They were incredibly badass and were more exciting than any blob. Dark elves looked really cool too with luclin gfx. That was all. No biggie for anyone else. Hell no one would even know you're using it, much like UI customization - IT DOES NOT EFFECT ANYONE ELSE.
Still a bit grumpy about this patch. Might as well restrict to classic resolution, 800x600. How is that any different than disabling luclin models? Or live's spell gfx (my old patch before nerfed like this one)?
You gonna disable "hide helmet" too? Warning: Gamebreaker. -___-
